All I meant was, don't go bashing Dobbs when he makes his mistakes. He's still young. He's the future of this program.

People should realize that Catone is doing everyone on the RF a favor. When he makes those NegaVol posts it keeps us from going over to the Dark Side (the FF). I'm always happy to not have to go over there.

We win out.

Pull a huge class (including Richmond).

We will beat Oklahoma and stand a good chance to be undefeated midway through next year.

Light at the end of this 7 year tunnel. Finally

I'm with you. I really believe we are that good, and about to get a lot better. I think the switch has been flipped and we are about to really start balling out.

We win out by beating every remaining team by at least two scores. I'd almost be willing to place money on that.

If we win out (IF), I'm thinking the chicken bowl would be an option. We would buy a lot of tickets at either venue though. Even though the Chick-Fil-A bowl is slightly more prestigious, I would prefer the honky tonk bowl over the chicken bowl just because of Nashville. Don't get me wrong, I'll happily take either.

Chick fil a has added "Peach" back in the name. I'm glad. The Peach Bowl is now one of the top bowls, I think a New Year's Day bowl, so it's not for the bottom SEC teams. They will rotate with the other top bowls to host the playoffs or conference champions. These are SEC tie-ins. They have done away with the rankings and will try to go more with proximity and match ups. The SEC already has 8 teams eligible and could go as high as 10 or 13.

Southeastern Conference
2014: College Football Playoff, the Allstate Sugar Bowl or the Discover Orange Bowl then:

#1 The Capital One Bowl versus Big Ten or ACC.
#2 The Outback Bowl versus Big Ten.
#3 The Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl versus ACC or Big 10.
#4 The TaxSlayer.com Gator Bowl versus ACC or Big 10.
#5 The AutoZone Liberty Bowl versus Big 12.
#6 The Texas Bowl versus Big 12.
#7 The Belk Bowl versus ACC.
#8 The Birmingham Bowl versus TBA.
#9 The Duck Commander Independence Bowl versus ACC.

The Chick-Fil-A Bowl (which will also add Peach back to its name) is now in the rotation with the semifinal playoff games. I don't think they have an SEC tie anymore. The SEC announced their 9 bowl tie ins early in the year, and it isn't one. Even if the SEC gets 2 teams in the playoff, there will be at least 5-6 teams ahead of us in the pecking order.

Mark Schlabach from ESPN still doesn't have us going to a bowl. Which means he thinks we'll lose to ky and missou. It's possible, but not probable. One site has us at 83.7% chance of going to a bowl. He has ky and usce going to a bowl.

Well there's a 100% chance that I couldn't care less what Mark Schlabach thinks.

If UK goes to a bowl, they will have to beat one of UGA, us, or UL. Possible but won't be easy.

Gruden messing with us again.

Ayers goes down.

"Let's check on the former Volunteer".

Think about those days. "He said Eric Berry from Tennessee like he was winking".

He's factoring pre-Dobbs performances from Tennessee into his analysis. Garbage in, garbage out IMO.

I would like to see us play in the MCB or Chick-fil-A.

I'm still pissed about the UNC game. That bowl left a bad taste in my mouth.
